"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

This is an exception to the rule that "there are always fans who are more obsessive than you." Someone should have told this guy, "Dude, you're the outlierest fan. No one else is gonna want this."

I imagine there are actually a number of Trekkies who would have liked to procure the guy's services. But their parents wouldn't let them redecorate the basement.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

CIA Agent Arrested After Stealing Over 1,000 Pairs Of Women's Underwear..

Good thing it's the NSA that's spying on us without warrents and not the CIA.

Of course, maybe the NSA is so secret that they can steal women's underwear and we never find out about it....

Coding and Sleeping

The NSA is probably stealing socks. It would explain a lot of broken pairs at my house.

Makes note: Glade is shrift's kryptonite

My kryptonite is not limited to Glade, but in the interest of self-preservation, I choose not to disclose that information at this time.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

The old computer that was supposed to be picked up on Sunday has been picked up. It was unexpected, but thankfully I was here when they called from down the street. Getting it down and into the car was maybe a bit more than I had the strength for.

Project eat is going strong, another round of food is in.

If it wasn't for the whole taping thing, I would SO be there.

Me, too!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

I know it's the middle of the day slump, but I still think people should post lots to entertain me. Otherwise today may never end.

Just like the CIA, horning in on Hoover's legacy ....

Data transfer via snail is faster than ADSL and pigeons

The picture cracked me up....

The system called SNAP (SNAil-based data transfer Protocol), uses biological carriers, and, for the first time, taking advantages of the unique merits of the wheel for data transfer...

System architecture: the system is constructed of a back end - a carriage, Ben-Hur movie style, which is made of a yoke made of light Balsa, and outfitted with two huge wheels - 2 DVD wheels, 4.7 Giga each. The front end, to which the carriage is harnessed consist of a Giant snail (Achatina fulica), known also as Giant African Snail (Africans are known as the world fastest runners ). These giant snail are of the GastroPod family (G-pod. We will reserve this name for transfer of music, and the name: G-mail for transfer of emails by snails SMTP –snail mobile transfer protocol )

Packets transport: Data is transported in 2 packets in parallel, 4.7 Giga each packet.

Results: Calculations that were conducted after the experiment, explicitly proved that in spite of the relatively, very slow, speed of the biological carriers, the Snap system succeeded in transferring data faster than any other conventional technologies, existing today.
